Parks and open spaces - opening and closing times

Year-round opening and closing times for Lambeth’s parks and open spaces.

Lambeth contains over 78 parks, commons and other public open spaces. 

All of our parks and open spaces are closed at night throughout the year, including at weekends and Bank Holidays. 

Official closing times are normally 15 minutes before dusk and will therefore vary throughout the year. Sites are open much later during the summer months than they would be during winter. 

Please refer to our official closing times to ensure you have plenty of time to leave the site.

This table will be updated regularly throughout the year.

Please note that British Summer Time (BST) is at midnight on Sunday 29th March, and closing times will go forward one hour as of Sunday 30th March.
